Well I didnt shave last Friday and I took the weekend off from the razor as well and had to shave last nite after a shower because it was driving me crazy.....well I was shaving and I managed to cut my lip. I sure hope Im not the only one who has ever cut their lip before with a straight razor.....It sure was a lot of blood from that cut....talk about my daily donation of blood. Well I wont be rushing around my lips tonite.....still learning.....
